Description

  • The present invention relates to 6-halogeno-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines for combating animal pests.
  • Animal pests destroy growing and harvested crops and attack wooden dwelling and commercial structures, causing large economic loss to the food supply and to property. While a large number of pesticidal agents are known, due to the ability of target pests to develop resistance to said agents, there is an ongoing need for new agents for combating animal pests. In particular, animal pests such as insects, acaridae and/or arachnids are difficult to be effectively controlled.
  • It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide compounds having a good pesticidal activity, especially against difficult to control insects, arachnids and acaridae.

  • In Scheme 1, the variables R1, R2, R3, R4 and X are as defined above. The reaction of a 6,7-dihalogeno-[1,2,4]triazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine of the formula II with an amine of the formula III may be carried out in the presence or absence of a solvent. Suitable solvents are all solvents which are inert under the reaction conditions, such as aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons such as hexane, petrol ether, cyclohexane, benzene, toluene, xylenes, ethers, for example dialkyl ethers, such as diethyl ether, methyl tert-butyl ether, cyclic ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, halogenated hydrocarbons such as dichloromethane or trichloromethane or C1-C4-alkanols such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, iso-propanol, n-butanol or tert-butanol, water or mixtures of these solvents. It is preferred that the reaction is carried out in the presence of a solvent. If the reaction is carried out in the absence of a solvent, the amine (III) is employed in a large excess, based on 6,7-dihalogeno-[1,2,4]triazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidin II.
  • It is also preferred that the reaction is carried out in the presence of a base. Suitable bases include organic bases, for example tertiary amines, such as trimethylamine, triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine and N-methylpiperidine, pyridine, substituted pyridines such as collidine, 2,3-lutidine, 2,4-lutidine or 2,5-lutidine and inorganic bases, for example alkali metal carbonates and alkaline earth metal carbonates such as lithium carbonate, potassium carbonate and sodium carbonate, calcium carbonate and alkali metal hydrogencarbonates such as sodium hydrogen carbonate. An excess of the amine III may serve as base.
  • The reaction temperature is usually in the range of from 0°C to the boiling of the solvent, preferably of from 20 to the 120°C.
  • The molar ratio of amine III to 6,7-dihalogeno-[1,2,4]triazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine II is generally at least 0.9:1, preferably at least 1:1. It may be advantageous to employ the amine III in a slight excess, for example of up to 20%, based on the 6,7-dihalogeno-[1,2,4]triazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine II.
  • In general, the base is employed in at least equimolar amount to a 2-fold molar excess, based on the 6,7-dihalogeno-[1,2,4]triazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine II. It may be advantageous to employ the base in a slight excess, for example up to 30%, based on the 6,7-dihalogeno-[1,2,4]triazolo-[1,5-a]pyrimidine II.
  • The reaction mixtures are worked up in a customary manner, for example by adding diluted acids, for example mineral acids such as diluted hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid and sulfuric acid or aqueous organic acids such as trifluoroacetic acid or acetic acid, aqueous hydrochloric acid being preferred, phase separation and, if appropriate, chromatographic purification, recrystallization, trituration or digestion. The compounds according to the present invention are in general oils, resinous compounds or predominantly crystalline solid materials.
  • From the preparation, the compounds of formula I may be obtained as isomer mixtures (stereoisomers, enantiomers). If desired, these can be resolved by the methods customary for this purpose, such as crystallization or chromatography, also on optically active adsorbate, to give the pure isomers.
  • Some of the amines of the formula III which are employed as starting materials are commercially available. Other may be prepared by processes known in the art, for example, by conversion of the corresponding alcohols into its tosylates which are then converted to the phthalimido derivatives. The phthalimido derivatives are converted to the desired amines by using hydrazine or any other suitable cleavage agent using conventional methods [e.g. J. Am. Soc., Vol. 117, p. 7025 (1995); WO 93/20804 ]; by reduction of the corresponding nitriles [see, Heterocycles, Vol. 35, p. 2 (1993); Synthetic Commun., Vol. 25, p. 413 (1995); Tetrahedron Lett., p. 2933 (1995)], or by reductive amination of ketones (see, J. Am. Chem. Soc., Vol. 122, p. 9556 (2000); Org. Lett., p. 731 (2001), J. Med. Chem., p. 1566 (1988); by conversion of the appropriate halogenides and, if appropriate, followed by alkylation. Alternatively, the amine may be carried out by addition of Grignard reagents to imines (see R.B. Moffett, Org. Synth.IV, 605 (1963)). Furthermore, the radical R4 may be introduced by Grignard reaction to nitriles or carboxylic acid anhydrides (see J. Org. Chem. p. 5056 (1992); Tetrahedron Lett., S. 29933 (1995)). If individual amines III are not disclosed in the cited literature they can be either obtained by routes described above or they can be prepared by derivatization of other compounds III or by customary modifications of the synthesis routes described above.
  • The starting materials of the formula II may be prepared in two steps, in analogy to the process described in Chem. Pharm. Bull. 1959, Vol. 7, p. 903. The synthesis is shown in Scheme 2.
    Figure imgb0006
  • In Scheme 2, the variables R1, R2 and X are as defined above, X' is halogen, R is alkyl, preferably C1-C6-alkyl, in particular methyl or ethyl and Hal means a halogenating agent. In the first step the 5-aminotriazole of the general formula IV is reacted with the malonic ester of the general formula V. The reaction may be carried out under alkaline conditions, preferably using high boiling tertiary amines as for example tri-n-butylamine. The 5-aminotriazoles IV are commercially available or can be prepared in analogy to the methods which are well known in the art.
  • In the second step of Scheme 2 the resulting 6-halogeno-7-hydroxy-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine of the general formula VI is treated with a halogenating agent, preferably with a brominating or chlorinating agent. Suitable halogenating agents include inorganic acid halides, preferably acid chlorides or acide bromides such as thionyl chloride, thionyl bromide, phosphorus oxychloride, sulfuryl chloride, phosphorus pentachloride or phosphorus tribromide, phosphorus trichloride and mixtures of these. If phosphorus oxychloride is used as a halogenating agent, the reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a mineral acid, such as polyphosphoric acid and pyridinium salts such as pyridinium bromide or chloride. Preferred halogenating agents are POCl3, PCl3/Cl2 or PCl5 and mixtures of these. The reaction can be carried out in the presence or absence of a solvent. The acid halides thionylchloride, phoshorus trichloride or phosphoryl chloride may simultaneous act as solvent. Suitable solvents are furthermore acetonitrile or dichloromethane. The halogenating agent is generally used in at least equimolar amounts, based on the 6-halogeno-7-hydroxy-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine of the general formula VI. The reaction is suitable carried out at a temperature in the range from 0°C to 150°C, the preferred reaction temperature being from 80°C to 125°C.

To prepare emulsions, pastes or oil dispersions, the substances as such or dissolved in an oil or solvent, can be homogenized in water by means of wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier. Alternatively, it is possible to prepare concentrates composed of active substance, wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier and, if appropriate, solvent or oil, and such concentrates are suitable for dilution with water.
  • The active ingredient concentrations in the ready-to-use products can be varied within substantial ranges. In general, they are from 0.0001 to 10%, preferably from 0.01 to 1%.
